Deadwood, Dakota Territory
Gold prospectors standing with pickaxes beside a rocker box, a device used for separating alluvial placer gold, as they mine an area of Deadwood, Dakota Territory (South Dakota), circa 1880. Known as 'placer mining', the method is often used for finding precious metal deposits, particularly gold, in alluvium, the sand and gravel of stream beds; the image is one half of a stereoscopic image.
